What's the thought on photoshoppery for this? Because the image I have in my head is going to require some serious multiple exposure style action to make work. I might be able to do it all in-camera, but it'd be a tad easier to do it with GIMP.
With what you want to do with it, that sounds fine. Will just not allow Photoshoppery when used for evil (putting yourself on to a screencap of Dune, for instance).
I may be off-base here, but Central Florida has what I believe are unique storms. It can be raining buckets on my neighbors lawn and nothing on mine, during a dry summer you can feel like you have your own personal drought watching the guy 20 feet is away dancing in his own personal monsoon. This is heading home one of those afternoons, the folks on the right are sun bathing, and the folks on the left are wondering if their car will float away.
So this is 1/2 drought.
Not a perfect fit but I like the idea threads and don't want to see it die, plus I heard there would be fabulous contest prizes for the winner.
edit: Fixed it, there wasn't a first image, just a ghost in the machine.
Hey Fred, the first one isn't loading, but I LOVE the second one! I love love LOVE storms like that. And I think it really does bring forth the theme well! AWESOME job!
Bottle of Tesco Value Vodka and a cheese and pickle sandwich?
I can't see the first picture either but the second one is excellent. I've sometimes seen walls of rain marching across the countryside here and it's an awesome sight. Yes, half a drought in Florida works for me.
@FredG: Brilliant shot. @ manglr: Been there, done that (though I suppose my shot would be of boxer-briefs? (they are my undies of choice for men)) @diello: OH NO!!! That is a tragedy! I have tequila? and many, many different beers (including one I tried for the first time tonight).
